EFFECTS OF
GLOBALIZATION
IN EDUCATION
■ Globalization has radically transformed the world in every aspect. But it has
especially transformed the world economy which has become increasingly inter-
connected and inter-dependent. But it also made the world economy increasingly
competitive and more knowledge based, especially in the developed western
countries
■ Global education interconnects methods of teaching from worldwide systems to
encourage the international development of environmental sustainability, as well as
contribution toward fortifying global industries. These educational initiatives
prioritize global access to school from the primary to the university levels,
instigating learning experiences that prepare students for multinational leadership
roles.
■ As education serves as foundational to global stability, the development of
multicultural awareness from an early age may integrate ideologies sourced from
various societies in order to arrive at well-balanced conclusions regarding issues
that surround the world as a whole. Globalization and education then come to
affect one another through mutual goals of preparing young people for successful
futures during which their nations will grow increasingly connected.
■ With globalization some of the challenges for knowledge, education and learning
will provide today’s learners the ability to be more familiar and comfortable with
■ Information society and global economy requires a holistic understanding of
systems thinking, including the world system and business eco-system.
Globalization uses a holistic approach to the problems. The interdisciplinary
research approaches are seen as critical to achieving a more comprehensive
understanding the complex reality currently facing the world system.
■ It enhances the student’s ability to manipulate symbols. Highly productive
employment in today’s economy will require the learner to constantly
manipulate symbols, such as political, legal and business terms, and digital
money.
■ Globalization enhances the student’s ability to acquire and utilize
knowledge. Globalization enhances the ability of learners to access, assess,
adopt, and apply knowledge, to think independently to exercise appropriate
judgment and to collaborate with others to make sense of new situations.
■ Globalization produces an increased quantity of scientifically and technically
trained persons. The emerging economy is based on knowledge as a key
factor of production and the industries demand the employees remain highly
trained in science and technology.
■ It encourages students to work in teams. To be able to work closely in
teams is the need for employees. Working in teams requires students to
develop skills in-group dynamics, compromise, debate, persuasion,
organization, and leadership and management skills.
■ Globalization breaks the boundaries of space and time. Using advanced
information and communications technologies, a new system of
knowledge, education and learning should apply a wide range of
synchronous and asynchronous activities that aid teacher and student in
breaking boundaries of space and time.
■ Globalization meets the knowledge, education and learning challenges and
opportunities of the Information Age. Knowledge based businesses often
complain that graduates lack the capacity to learn new skills and
assimilate new knowledge. Globalization makes it easier for businesses.
■ Globalization creates and supports information technologists, policy
makers, and practitioners for the purpose of rethinking education and
supports mechanisms for the exchange of ideas and experiences in the use
of educational technologies.
■ Globalization encourages explorations, experimentation to push the
frontiers of the potential of information technologies and communications
for more effective learning.
■ Global sharing of knowledge, skills, and intellectual assets that are
necessary to multiple developments at different levels.
■ Mutual support, supplement and benefit to produce synergy for various
developments of countries, communities and individuals.
■ Creating values and enhancing efficiency through the above global
sharing and mutual support to serving local needs and growth.
■ Promoting international understanding, collaboration, harmony, and
acceptance to cultural diversity across countries and regions.
■ Facilitating communications, interactions, and encouraging multi-cultural
contributions at different levels among countries.
■ The potential fallback of globalization in education can be the increased
technological gaps and digital divides between advanced countries and
less developed countries.
■ Globalization in education may end up creating more legitimate
opportunities for a few advanced countries for a new form of colonization
of developing countries.
